What should I do if my valuables are stolen when traveling abroad?

When traveling abroad, if valuables are stolen, you should report it to the police immediately, and then ask the consular office of the host country for help. If you call the police for help in time, maybe the lost things can be found back. If you can't find the stolen valuables, you should also issue a certificate of loss at the local public security bureau for customs inspection or claim compensation from the insurance company. Remember, if you find a thief, just remember his appearance and all the characteristics that can prove his identity, especially single women.

When traveling abroad, the most important thing is to nip in the bud. For example, don't wear gold and silver to show off your wealth and make yourself a target of public criticism. It is best to take a lock when traveling abroad, and lock the cabinet with your own lock when staying. If unfortunate property is stolen or robbed, and temporary economic difficulties occur, go to the resident embassy for assistance. Although China's local embassies and consulates will not solve the economic problems for tourists, they can help tourists to let their relatives and friends remit money through the embassies and consulates.

If you meet someone in casual clothes to verify, you should first calmly ask the other person to show your certificate. If you can't read the words on the certificate, you can go to the nearby police station and ask for verification.

If you can't judge the authenticity of the police on the spot, you'd better say that your passport and money are in the hotel safe, or pretend not to understand, ask passers-by and shops to help you translate, and never take out important documents and money.

When traveling abroad, people who greet you actively and enthusiastically are generally suspicious. If someone greets you warmly, you'd better keep silent and don't respond to avoid being cheated.

When traveling abroad, you should bring less cash and spend it by credit card as much as possible to avoid economic losses caused by cash theft. It's better to get a credit card in China before going abroad, which can be used in most foreign countries. It's safer, but you should also prepare some cash. Because in Southeast Asia and America, there is also the risk of credit card theft, except for big shopping malls and hotels, it is more appropriate to use cash than credit cards in these countries.
